Nintendo teases. Masks for Zelda WiiU? Another Majora style game? What could this be?

when you wear the shulk mask, you really feel it

Maybe Zelda Wii U IS Majora's Mask 2. That's why no title yet, and that's why they released MM3D now as opposed to 2012, 2013 or 2014.
I doubt it since he said he's got new masks. It would be weird to introduce new masks in Hyrule Warriors considering it's a fan service game that uses previous games' weapons/items.
this..
I still believe that the Zelda audience now is more mature to appreciate this kind of games, Majora's was highly underestimated when it was released
Shit.
Imagine a Majora Mask style game where you are given visions of possible futures and your actions will deterimine what to do, but like all good visions

Who knows! But I don't think that's the reason for the lack of a title. It's not unusual for new 3D Zelda titles to lack titles until closer to release.
Because it came out on the same day of the new 3ds.

Unless Zelda U is 2016.

Can't wait for the 3 hour linear mask tutorial, and the masks you can collect and trade for rupees, with the possibility of even more rupees!

This. Also, it just seems unlikely we'd get another Zelda game after MM3D, Hyrule Warriors and the upcoming Wii U game.

Don't bring back masks again, it was a one time deal and that's what made it so good. Anything else please.

N3DS is an update to an existing system that's not hurting for available software. I doubt that has anything to do with it.
The point is, if the three-day system was so difficult for people like the person claimed, it's clearly not impacting the game's positive word of mouth, and thus sales.
Come on now. At least ALBW had no tutorials at all.

What engine? the MM and OoT 3D? I thought they were just ports.?
Conaiding that the 3ds sold almost 400000 last month which most of those were n3ds I going to say it was a big reason.

Zelda U should have side quests that give you masks as a reward. Should be a Zelda staple by now, tbh

Majora's Mask sold well when it first released. The game selling well has nothing to do with whether or not casual audiences find it too difficult. But there's a reason why it's labeled the "controversial" zelda, and that's reason enough for them to not experiment with anything similar in the future.
That's because the game was so simplistic that there was nothing to teach. If that's where the future of Zelda is headed, I am very concerned.
This game is a remake. People were already familiar with how tough it is.
Yet it's still the fastest-selling handheld Zelda in the U.S.
No Zelda achieves that on the strength of core gamers alone.
I think that would kind of undermine the "happiness" angle he took in Majora's Mask. Doesn't strike me as the Randall Flagg type at all.

I'm not worried about the bloat and tedium in portable Zelda games. But hey, I'm all for Nintendo bucking a decade long trend of meandering intros and vacuous filler in console Zelda games. Not that the footage of the new game gives me a lot of optimism, if you hadn't guessed.

I would be dead cause I would already be in heaven if MM2 was announced.

You mean happy masks salesman might appear not neccesarily the masks themselves.
Wouldn't even be mad.
Majora's Mask is so fucking awesome. What great news if masks are in Zelda U
What? The message mentions having new masks for "you" to try on.

This thought had occurred to me of something they made do for the Zelda line whenever Zelda U comes out. Link, "Classic" Link, Fierce Deity Link, Deku Link, etc.

I knew they wouldn't be able to resist this, if it ends up happening.
People will kill each other them. Hell, a Zelda gold Link Amiibo makes more sense than a gold Mario.

Playing MM3D made me really want a MM2. The idea is so good but nobody has done it before.
I don't think I'd want another 3 day cycle thing, but a 24 hour cycle with Masks could work on any Zelda game
Why now?
What are those recent appearances they are talking about?
Havn't see anything official outside MM3D.
At the very least it means he will be in Zelda U. But then again, why now? Maybe a tease for a next Nintendo Direct, with Zelda info.
Edit: Also, very nope on Hyrule Warriors. Last DLC trailer even stated clearly it was the last one.
